SKU:
A$5.00
A$5.00 - A$5.50
Crassula ovata is also known as the Jade Plant or the Money Tree. In Chinese fengshui traditions, it is considered a lucky plant and a must-have in every home.
The Jade Plant has thick, shiny, smooth leaves that are fleshy. Like many succulents, its colour varies under different light, water and nutrition conditions. When exposed to high levels of sunlight, the leaves take on a beautiful darker red colour, especially at the edges.
The "Hummel's Sunset" cultivar exhibits a stunning combination of light green, yellow and red on the plant in cold weather, which is truly stunning. It can grow quite tall and become hedge-like. It is VERY drought tolerant. Also tolerates over-watering if the plant is well established.
The plant produces small white or pink, star-like shaped flowers in early spring.
Plant You Will Receive
The plant you receive will look similar to the one displayed in the photos (with colour variations).
The plant in the first 3 photos is displayed in a 70mm pot.
It will be sent bare-rooted, without soil. If you would like a pot to go with the plant, please select the "With 70mm pot" option in the shopping cart. You will then receive a 70mm plastic pot with your plant.
Recommended Care
Buy potting soil designed for Succulents and Cacti, if you're uncertain about soil type.
Alternatively, you can use 50% normal potting soil with 50% pumice.
Usually water once a week is sufficient. Soak the soil completely, then let it dry completely before re-watering. Succulents do NOT like soggy soil stuck around their roots, so a bit more neglect is usually better than too much coddling!
Postage
Due to quarantine restrictions, we apologise that we cannot send plants to WA, NT or Tasmania, or outside Australia.
Postage Australia-wide will be by Australian Express Post. To ensure health of the plants, orders will only be posted on the first Monday or Tuesday after payment has been received (so that plants are not stuck at a post depot over the weekend).
We are happy to combine postage on purchases of multiple plants:
For a 500g Box = $10 ( usually fits up to 6 plants)
3 Kg Box = $15,
5Kg Box = $25.
